Senior police officers who oversaw a 'boys club' have been sacked amid claims of cronyism, bullying and racking up thousands in bogus expenses claims.
Chief Superintendent Paul Martin was found to have failed to declare a conflict of interest when he interviewed his friend Chief Inspector Davinder Kandohla for promotion to Superintendent.
The officer then committed further misconduct in a bid for revenge on the man he accused of 'grassing' on him to bosses, a hearing was told.
He also claimed more than £5,500 in expenses while using a card owned by Police Sergeant James Di-Luzio on alcohol, travel insurance and flight upgrades on a week-long trip to a policing conference in Florida.
At the time, his line manager was only aware he had claimed £105.98 on expenses.
He also claimed one colleague's pregnancy had led her to talk too much, before calling her a 'f***ing nutter'.
Kandohla was accused of failing to declare the conflict of interest and telling colleagues to make false statements on two occasions.
His wife, PC Parina Kandohla, was also accused of failing to report and challenge him, but the allegations against her were not proven.
